ARTE ABSTRACTO, EXPRESIONISMO

ARTE ABSTRACTO, EXPRESIONISMO refers to two influential art movements that emerged in the early 20th century. Abstract Art (Arte Abstracto) focuses on using shapes, colors, and forms to achieve its effect rather than depicting the visual reality. Expressionism (Expresionismo) is characterized by presenting the world from a subjective perspective, distorting it to evoke moods or ideas. Both movements have significantly impacted the development of modern art, influencing various artists and styles over the decades.
